The dynamic artistic centres of China are producing some of the most interesting and compelling contemporary art of our time. But there are fascinating stories as yet insufficiently told: the stories of women artists. It was Chairman Mao who said Women hold up half the sky. This book reveals the work and lives of 32 artists : Bu Hua, Cui Xiuwen, Cao Fei, Xiao Lu, Lin Jingjing, Lin Tianmiao, Yin Xiuzhen, Li Tingting, Shi Zhiying, Gao Ping, Bingyi, Yu Hong, Xie Qi, Han Yajuan, Dong Yuan, Wang Zhibo, Huang Jingyuan, He Chengyao, Yingmei Duan, Ma Qiusha, Tao Aimin, Ma Yanling, Chen Lingyang, Zhou Hongbing, Liu Shiyuan, Fang Lu, Liang Yuanwei, Li Shurui, and Qin Fengling.
